Archer's Toolbox is a pocket toolbox for programmers. Paste anything, and it tells you what it is and every useful way to read it. INSPECT Paste or type any value and Inspect recognizes it on sight: • Error codes: HTTP statuses, NSURLError codes like -1009, POSIX errno (Apple and Linux), Keychain OSStatus codes, Cocoa errors, process exit codes and iOS crash codes like 0x8badf00d, each explained in plain words • Unix timestamps in seconds or milliseconds, and ISO 8601 dates • JSON Web Tokens, with claims and whether they've expired • JSON, with the exact line and column of any mistake • Base64, URL encoding, HTML entities, Unicode escapes and hex bytes, decoded • URLs, broken into host, path and every query parameter • UUIDs, including when a version 7 UUID was made • Cron schedules, in plain English with their next run times • IPv4 and IPv6 addresses and subnets • Numbers in any base, floating-point values and colors INSPECT FROM ANY APP Select text in Safari, Mail, Notes or any other app, or share a link, and choose Inspect in the share sheet. The answer appears right there. 19 TOOLS Numbers: base converter with bits you can tap to flip, bitwise operations and shifts, IEEE 754 floating point (see what 0.1 really is), data sizes in KB and KiB, color codes with WCAG contrast. Text & data: encode and decode, MD5 to SHA-512 and HMAC hashes for text and files with checksum verification, JSON formatter and minifier, regex tester with groups and replacement, JWT decoder, text inspector with case styles and code points. Debugging & systems: error code lookup, Unix time, cron, subnets, chmod permissions. Generate: UUID v4 and v7, passwords and random keys, QR codes for text and Wi-Fi. SHORTCUTS AND SPOTLIGHT Generate a UUID or password, convert a timestamp or number, or inspect text from Spotlight, Siri or the Shortcuts app. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything runs on your device. No account, no tracking, no ads, and the app never connects to the internet. Free, with no in-app purchases.

Manage client updates, announcements, and invoices for your app via our app. The App Beacon app enables subscribers to access the Beacon conveniently from their mobile devices. Users can manage service logs, share videos, and send push notifications. Access to the app is granted with the same credentials as the App Beacon, so a Beacon account must be created before using the app.
